Brooks needs medical attention, not job back

In the newspaper March 28, it read, "Assembly considers its first expulsion," regarding Steven Brooks, who was arrested twice, red flag, hospitalized for mental evaluation, red flag, accused of threatening another legislator, red flag, and also trying to grab a police officer's holster weapon, red flag.

What do you suppose would have happened if the accused would have gotten control of that gun?

Now the Legislature has mixed results to whether to kick out or reprimand the person. What kind of rules do these politicians follow when something this serious arises? Where does "common sense" fit in?

If he gets kicked out, will he go "postal" and return with a weapon to the Capitol grounds or Legislative Building and get even?

Mr. Brooks needs medical attention, not his job back.

The last chapter in this saga is yet to be written.

W.D. Tarrant, Virginia City

Editor's note:The Nevada Assembly voted to expel Brooks on Thursday.
